Actually I was playing on count the feet thing....

You see the topic just made me s#@t may pants.But this is what happened when the pics started.
This is me====> (with a Girlie Scream)

Even though i work for the Fire dept i handled much worst things but Bring a spider near me i would out run a hawker selling pirated dvds from the police.

911 we have long ago established that hawkers selling pirated dvd's does not run from the police... They simply pay a bribe and is thereafter left well and alone.

Tribble go check Kronos' FB updates... He loaded some new pics of his baby.. Thing moulted yesterday. Got some awesome colour schemes going.

Cronos' baby is a giant moulting spider... why doesn't that surprise me?

It is interesting when you think about it. We are the #1 species on this planet. We have the ability to over come our irrational fears which makes it surprising that so many of us suffer from claustrophobia and arachnophobia. I have a mild fear of heights but if I put my mind to it I can overcome it when I need to.

My mother and sister are claustrophobic.
I find irrational fears like this hilarious and taunt them mercilessly.

Arachnophobia is not as irrational as claustrophobia, agoraphobia or those other silly ones - but it is still very worthy of derision

that is also true.

Great - after looking at his "pet" - I dreamt about a tarantula last night. I had him sitting on my wrist and he was holding on so tightly. I was trying to find somewhere to put him in that he couldn't escape from. All that because I asked if the poor guy lived all his life in that glass box.

Waahahaha... Tribble you should not ask questions to which you don't want the answers.

I should also not look at photographs of spiders. I have this undeniable fascination with them - and an even greater fear. A very morbid curiosity. If I am behind my camera - I am fine. If there is no camera - I am petrified.
